Derrick has put duty above personal gain for his entire life. After 26 years in the Navy, 21 as a Navy SEAL, Derrick returned to his home in Wisconsin to open a small business and give back to the community. He knows that being a Representative means exactly that: representing the people who elected him to serve.
After more than 20 years in Washington, Ron Kind is not the same representative who was elected in 1997. He has lost his way, preferring his role as an influencer for national Democrats instead of leading for Wisconsin families. Derrick will always put the 3rd District first. He took an oath to defend the constitution, and that oath doesn't expire.
